On matchday 15, Parma fell to defeat in their big showdown against Lazio. Moraca’s 35th-minute goal proved to be the winner in a hard-fought match where Colantuono’s side hit the bar through Ploner.
Parma now trail Ternana and Lazio by three points but have the chance to bounce back when they face Cesena away from home next week.
